A little while ago I posted about my brother finding a lovely 1948 Transitional M&P Short Action at the Ventura Gun Show (Original 1948 Short Action Thread). Well, here it is. Oh, by the way, my brother wants to know if anyone has an M&P with an S serial number later than the one on this little guy.








And, as an added attraction, here is his 1947 Transitional M&P Long Action (one of his birth year revolvers). He bought this one from a dealer who's a retired LAPD Detective. He took it in on consignment from a long retired Los Angeles County Deputy Sheriff. The Deputy worked plains clothes and carried it in the Clark holster. It makes a nice combo.

Very nice revolvers, I'm envious.

I've done some good at the Ventrua Guns show in the past. Live to far to make it there anymore.

Don't forget the special gun that the factory kept: S1,000,000.
